I have taken my son on many charters and hands down this one was the best, and not just because we caught fish. Captain Chris had the greatest prompt communication with me from out of state. Captain Jimmy our guide was amazing and put us on fish and was super knowledgeable about all the ins and outs.

We went out on a half day AM trip last week and had a blast. We caught plenty of fish, but honestly it would have been great even if we hadn't. Capt. Jimmy really knew his stuff. He knew where and how to fish to take advantage of the tide, current and wind. He was exceedingly patient with our 4 and 7 year old grandchildren.

Caleb was knowledgeable and made sure we were in the right spots to catch a lot of fish. Caleb taught us some tips and tricks to catch the biggest flounder I have ever caught. He was one of the best guides I have experienced. My son and I had a great time despite a small rain delay.
Neil Langham
Went coastal fishing with Caleb on a beautiful September morning. Boat is clean, organized and well appointed. Fishing was slow at first but he continued to try other spots til we were successful. Caught shark, red, flounder. Our group included very experienced and those with little experience. He kindly teaches those who have less or no experience.

Common catches include flounder, redfish, speckled trout, and black drum, all known for their challenging yet rewarding battles.
